Seeding for Major League Lacrosse Championship Weekend will be on the line when the Chesapeake Bayhawks (8-5) host the Charlotte Hounds (7-6) on Saturday night (7 p.m.) at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium.
If the Bayhawks come away with a win on Saturday they can earn either the second or third seed while a loss would drop the defending champions to the number four seed, which would mean a matchup against undefeated and number one seeded Denver (13-0).
Besides the seeding, the Bayhawks also wish to finish the season on a high note with a win. Charlotte is currently riding a franchise record three-game winning streak and is guaranteed a postseason position.
“I don’t care about Charlotte’s momentum. That means nothing to me,” Cottle said. “We’re more worried about Chesapeake’s momentum. We think we’re starting to play better. No disrespect intended, but Charlotte’s momentum, we don’t give two hoots about that. We’re only concerned with Chesapeake’s momentum.”
The Bayhawks play their final regular season game on Saturday, August 10th against the Charlotte Hounds at 7:00 PM at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium.
